BS. Frames are over-priced. These are designer frames that cost twice
as much at an optometrists office. They are just frames for freakin'
sakes! My lenses were a bit over $300.00 and that was at wal-mart!
I shudder to think what they would have cost elsewhere since many
insurance plans won't pay for the actual glasses! I had to pay in full
out of pocket.
